"Police are being trained in crowd control, which raises the question about what it is that they are expecting. Indeed, new recruits have been busy learning the techniques of crowd control. Armed with batons and shields, 20 officers were put through their paces during the two-day intensive course at Buffadero training area."

Sounds like they are preparing or expecting something... that means we won't like it.
All about knowing the enemy better than he knows you, simple enough.
These people are wise as a serpent and very organised...
As far as i can tell they know what people would do.

Police forces are trained to obey orders - even if those orders are against the people they are supposed to protect even against lying domestic political enemies/traitors.
Royal Gibraltar Police stopping vehicles - Which is where we are headed – Papers please.
There are psychological tests on-going all over the world.
Police are now given power to shut down businesses for "rule-breakers" – NSW Police will have the power to shut down businesses and worksites as the state records 239 new cases of COVID-19
And if you ask how can a police force turn against its people – it's all in the training.
Watch this video and logically think about what the Stasi officers did and how police forces (and military) are being programmed to believe similar. It's history repeating - entire nations are being imprisoned, because the officers are following evil orders, and believe they must contain the people. Just because they believed it and followed orders did not make it right.

And in truth, the people don't want to live in isolation, surveilled by technology and stopped at check-points; or made to be guinea pigs with poisonous vaccines. People want to escape from this type of oppression. And as the oppression escalates more and more will be employed by The State to contain the people ( ie Covid Marshals).
And how long before these become even more familiar scenes – British mother demands apology from government after police terrorized “petrified” daughter who was self-isolating for covid – NaturalNews.com?
At what point are the police officers going to stop bullying and start protecting? Are they going to say no to becoming a gang of thugs picking on the weak? Is it a power-trip?

The Royal Gibraltar Police’s Search Team and Police Support Unit received three days of intense refresher training this week.
A statement from the RGP follows below:
The Royal Gibraltar Police’s Search Team and Police Support Unit were put through their paces during three days of intense refresher training this week.
Search Officers must pass a yearly written exam and a practical search (where they have to find hidden explosive devices) in order to remain licensed.
Together with the Gibraltar Defence Police Search Advisors, they studied methods of attack, how to recognise various types of Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) and other items used by terrorists.
Meanwhile, the Police Support Unit were busy doing public order training – ahead of Gibraltar’s upcoming international football matches.
PSU officers are trained to deal with a variety of public order situations over and above those faced by uniformed police officers.

A Royal Gibraltar Police officer has become the first officer on the Rock to qualify as a Public Order Gold Commander.
Superintendent John Field completed the five-day College of Policing course with 10 other officers at Ryton-on-Dunsmore in the UK last week.
The qualification will help the RGP better prepare for large scale public events such as military parades, demonstrations, protests and sporting events.
Supt. Field, said: “It’s the most intensive, tough and demanding course I’ve ever done in my life. We spent a lot of hours studying for this, but it will help us to help keep the public and Gibraltar safer at large scale events.”
The gold commander is in overall control of a police force’s resources at an incident involving the public.
This person will not be at location, but at a control room known as Gold Command, where they will formulate the strategy for dealing with the incident.

Title of this thread: POLICE TRAINED IN CROWD CONTROL INCLUDES MILITARY POLICE - WHY?
The answer has always been there since this whole New Totalitarian Regime launched with the Plandemic -
Gold command
The title of a function—the others are Silver and Bronze—adopted by each of the emergency services (police, fire, ambulance, emergency medical) in the event of a major incident (mass disaster) in the UK, which is role, rather than rank related.
Gold is used the same way as “strategic” in other emergency plans. Gold is the commander in overall charge of each service, the one who formulates the strategy for handling the incident. Each Gold has overall command of the resources of his or her own organisation, and delegates tactical control to his or her respective Silver (but may not physically participate). Gold’s job on arriving at the scene is to determine the strategy and record a strategy statement, which is monitored and subject to ongoing review. Source

Police Sergeant Tanya McLeod recently successfully completed the College of Policing’s Crisis and Hostage Negotiators National Course.
A statement from the RGP follows below:
“This was the toughest but most rewarding course I’ve ever done.”
Those are the words of Police Sergeant Tanya McLeod who has successfully completed the College of Policing’s ‘Crisis and Hostage Negotiators National Course’. It was run by Greater Manchester Police and attended by officers from all over England and Wales.
Week One of the course focussed on Crisis Negotiation, where the scenarios were mainly based around people who wished to take their own life. Training sessions were led by psychiatrists, mental health professionals and experienced police officers with some sessions being held on the roofs of high-rise buildings where specially selected and trained negotiators acted out their roles as persons who were just about to jump. As with all other practical sessions, the students’ actions were recorded on film so that their negotiations could be assessed and used for feedback. The pressure was constant!
In Week Two, attention switched to hostage scenarios in which students worked closely with Police Support Units (PSU) and Firearms officers.
‘Although we were working with PSU and Firearms teams, we learned to be independent of them. We were just there to talk to the Subject and not to make operational decisions,” said Tanya.
Some of the scenarios involved a breakdown of public order or the start of a riot and, in these situations, Tanya would sometimes need to negotiate with the rioters from behind a squad of officers holding their riot shields – or even from behind a police vehicle. All this was faithfully replicated in the training course.

Sergeant Paul Chiara has just returned from a two-day police conference in Liverpool that focused on self-defence, arrest and restraints.
Thirty ‘Use of Force’ experts from around the UK attended the event in which officers discussed how to improve training and share best practice between different police forces.
Sgt Chiara, who is the RGP’s lead officer on the use of force, said: “I had an amazing experience and it’s a privilege to be working alongside so many experts in this field.”
“Force is always the last resort when all communications tactics have failed. It’s used to keep officers and the community safe -- even if it’s to keep a subject safe from themselves.”

This training isn't being done for nothing. Are they gearing up for those last resort tactics? Police officers are being trained to keep corrupt politicians safe, not the people they serve, as the people are being tyrannically oppressed by their governments with this Scamdemic. If people (besides the elderly) start dropping, or children start mysteriously coming down with myocarditis in Gib, will that cause them to rise up? ... Word on the street, people may be starting to drop.

This week new RGP recruits are spending five days learning about Personal Safety Training.
A statement from the RGP follows below:
It’s very hands-on in the RGP’s Training School this week.
The new recruits are spending five days learning about Personal Safety Training (PST).
In line with the UK College of Policing’s guidelines, instructors are teaching them how to diffuse heated situations and use communication to try to resolve issues without the use of force.
Recruits also learning self-defence tactics and how to use handcuffs, police batons and limb restraints in a legal and proportionate way.
Later on this week, they will learn how to use Captor spray (incapacity spray), which is used for violent and non-compliant members of the public.
Sgt Paul Chiara, who heads the PST, said: “Every police officer is given PST training when they join the RGP.
“This training is essential and could prevent harm, injury or save a life.”
The 20 officers are now in their third week of the Training School and are due to start in June.
Six senior Royal Gibraltar Police officers have just returned from a successful three- day firearms course, run by South Wales Police in the Vale of Glamorgan.
During the Joint Firearms Training Unit course, they were updated on the latest UK tactics and techniques, before being tested in various scenarios involving the deployment of firearms officers.
They were then assessed on their plans of action, with all six officers passing the course.

Royal Gibraltar Police officers have spent the past two days on an intensive Public Order refresher course at the Buffadero Training Camp.
During the training, dozens of officers donned full protective gear for scenarios that simulated real life violent public disorder.
The officers were then pelted with missiles and attacked by other officers who were involved in the training.
Acting Inspector James Rodriguez, who led the course, said: “It’s a very demanding two days, both physically and mentally for the officers. But it’s important that they do this refresher training often as they need to know how to implement police cordons, respond to commands and how to respond safely to large scale violent disorder scenarios.
“We rarely see public disorder on our streets, but, nevertheless, we have to be able to respond to it. And this training has become more important since Gibraltar joined UEFA in 2013, as we now have large numbers of football fans travelling to the Rock. We need to be prepared for all possible eventualities.”
James explained that there are three main strands to the public order training: containing the disorder, protecting the public and protecting the officers themselves. The implementation of police cordons for a crowd control environment was also rehearsed.
He added: “It’s also important that the officers get used to the specialist Personal Protection Equipment, which they have to wear when deployed to a public order incident. This includes fire resistant overalls, boots, protective gloves, helmets and face masks, which would shield officers from petrol bombs in a riot. They also have shields and batons, which would only be used as a last resort.”

A number of Royal Gibraltar Police officers are currently learning how to become Personal Safety Training Instructors during a three-week course.
A statement from the RGP follows below:
The specialist training is being run by the RGP’s Sergeant Paul Chiara and follows the UK College of Policing’s latest guidelines on the use of force.
After the course, the officers will be able to train their police colleagues on how to detain and restrain people safely.
PS Chiara, who has recently completed a Train the Trainer course run by the College of Policing in London, said: “It’s very important that all of our officers have up to date training in line with the College of Policing.
“We need this training in order to deal safely with members of the public when they are resisting arrest and whenever it is not possible to de-escalate a tense situation.
“Using force is always a last resort – but it’s all about keeping officers and the public safe. “Our Training Instructors can now pass these skills on to their fellow officers.”
At a Passing Out Parade held today in Central Hall, 17 RGP recruits were today presented with certificates to mark the successful completion of their 21-week training course.
The parade was inspected by His Excellency the Governor, Sir David Steel, with Chief Minister Fabian Picardo in attendance.
The Minister for Justice, the Hon Samantha Sacramento presented the prize for Best Academic to PC (291) Karl Clarke and for Best All Round Recruit to PC (296) Tom Potter.
In addressing the recruits, Minister Sacramento said,
‘As you now commence the real world of policing, it is only right that you take on board the great responsibility that comes with a life of public service and law enforcement.
‘The people of Gibraltar will hold you in high regard and will place their trust in you. That trust is founded on the integrity and impartial practices of the service and its members and it is ever more important that the service represents the best of the community in all its areas.’
In his address, the Commissioner of Police Richard Ullger said, ‘Our recruit officers here today are now going to take with them some key skills from the training school into the community, and they will have some really challenging experiences in their careers to deal with, but they will be confident and proud of the fact that they will be contributing to the wider effort, of protecting the vulnerable and keeping Gibraltar safe.’
The Commissioner added that, ‘Thirty four years ago last Monday, I found myself where they are today, and I would do anything - absolutely anything - to be in their shoes right now. I wish them all the very best in their careers and I am grateful to them for making the Royal Gibraltar Police their chosen profession.’
Having successfully completed their Armed Response Vehicles Initial Firearms Course, four RGP officers were presented with their certificates by Assistant Commissioner Cathal Yeats, on Friday.
Mr Yeats thanked PCs Sam Attias, Michael Hill, Ethan Nacimiento and Jordan Recagno for volunteering for a qualification which he said “could potentially place them in greater danger than many of their colleagues”.
The course took 11 weeks of full time training on three weapons, the Carbine MP5, the Glock 17 Self Loading Pistol and the Taser X2.
The training was a mix of classroom work and practical sessions on the Buffadero Training Area and it included modules on policies, use of force, threat assessments, risk assessments, advanced first aid, weapon handling and a range of tactical scenarios.
There were pass or fail assessments in week two and throughout week 11.
“These officers will now rotate between normal frontline policing and armed response officers,” said Police Sergeant Mark Diaz.
“And, in order to retain this qualification, they must spend a minimum of 120 hours of continuous professional development training every year for the rest of their police careers.”

Following the initial Joint Emergency Services Interoperability Principles (JESIP) training received in 2019, Gibraltar JESIP trainers received refresher training earlier this week.
A statement from the Government follows below:
JESIP is a UK-wide programme launched by the UK Home Office in 2012 with the aim of helping responders save more lives through effective joint working at all incidents where a multi-agency response is required. JESIP joint doctrine establishes a national standard to multi-agency joint working for all incidents, including Counter-Terrorism. The refresher training was delivered by Carl Daniels, the UK’s JESIP Deputy Senior Responsible Officer.
This was the first opportunity following the COVID-19 pandemic to get the JESIP trainers updated with the latest JESIP doctrine and was arranged by HM Government of Gibraltar’s Office of Civil Contingencies.
Following the refresher training, trainers delivered training to Strategic, Tactical and Operational Commanders from across Gibraltar’s Emergency Services, the military and other responding partners. In total, 25 new JESIP commanders received the training. The training is Important to ensure effective interoperability amongst the emergency services as seen in recent major incidents such as COVID-19, the fire in the Power’s Drive tunnel and OS35 collision.
The Deputy Senior Responsible Officer, Carl Daniels, said “It was a privilege to support the Gibraltar Emergency Services and responding organisations in introducing the latest interoperable doctrine, the complexities of a large number of organisations working together at incidents brings unique challenges and the JESIPframework assists responders in structuring their response, so that as many lives as possible can be saved. The responders in Gibraltar showed through the JESIP training delivered this week that they continue committed to working together to save lives”.
The Minister responsible for Civil Contingencies, the Hon Samantha Sacramento MP, said “Recent events in Gibraltar have shown the need for our emergency services to operate effectively together in response to major incidents or events. Both the refresher training and the commander training, will allow our emergency services and other key organisations to be better placed when dealing with serious incidents. JESIP training will continue to be coordinated through the Office of Civil Contingencies to ensure that the JESIP doctrine is widely applied across responding agencies and organisations. I take this opportunity to express my gratitude to Carl Daniels for his continued support to HM GOG and specifically the Office of Civil Contingencies.”
